Welcome to eWillys.com, a website for vintage jeep enthusiasts. I update this website nearly every day with jeep deals, jeep history, interesting reader projects, jeep related info, and more.
These quick searches can help you find things on eBay. People list in the wrong categories all the time, so don't be surprised to see brochures in the parts area for example.
The links to posts below show jeeps grouped by models, condition, and other ways. Some of these jeeps are for sale and others have been sold. If you are unsure whether a vehicle is still for sale or not, email me at d [at] ewillys.com for more info.
There are plenty of interesting, unusual, historic and surprising stories related to Jeeps and their owners. In addition, some of these features have nothing to do with jeeps. This link will display all featured stories starting from the latest.
Looking for parts and not sure where to go? There are a variety of large and small new and used parts sellers both online and offline.
Importantly, the allure of buying a project jeep can be romantic. The reality of restoring a jeep can be quite different, expensive and overwhelming without the right tools and resources. So, tread carefully when purchasing a "project". If you have any concerns about buying a vintage jeep, or run across a scam, feel free to contact me for help, comments or concerns .
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $10,000

That could be a CJ-5 frame based on its length.

Appears to have good restoration potential with some known history.
“1950 Willy’s M38. NOT RUNNING. All parts are there though. I bought it from the gentleman who brought it home from the Korean War after he served his time and bought it from the military. Clean title, in my name. My plan was to rebuild it (as I have done with a previous CJ2a) but other time commitments take priority. Engine turns over, as do the wheels. Not shown in the photos are the seats, gas tank, rear bench seat, windshield/glass and some other parts.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $7800.

(01/27/2015) This is a DJ/CJ-3B project.
“1961 Willys CJ Jeep flat fender Project
Rust Free Super Super clean Tub. VIN #57348 70150
I think frame and chassis is a CJ3b drivetrain and whoever built this jeep ordered new tub and body parts for a cj2a?
You can hear motor run. I jump starter and put gas in carb fires right up.
Here is what I think it has>
4 cyl 134 CID 2.2L F4-134 Hurricane 14 motor
Transmission T-90
Transfercase T-18
Dana 25

“Up for sale is a 1946 Willys Jeep. The Jeep has been converted to a V8 engine from a 1969 Camaro SS 12 volt overdrive with power steering. The Jeep is currently not running and has not been started in 15 years. The Jeep has been owned by family since 1968 and been garaged. It has minimal rust and the gas tank needs to be replaced to get it running. I have the white canvas top in good condition. This was going to be my project car but I have no time hoping to sell to a Jeep enthusiast. ”
I forgot to publish these on Tuesday. Here’s a link to the crossword puzzle.
This article appeared in the February 1956 issue of Willys News. No pics were added, but I thought the article itself was interesting.
Good front-end shot of a BRC-60

Nice looking jeep.
“I am trying to assist a friend of mine on selling his Willys. I don’t quite have the details on the vehicle but will update when I do….He is asking $12,000 for this Willys. He has owned it since the 50’s and used it to run in the sand dunes. Now he is a little less comfy in it, being 91 years old and just wants someone to enjoy it like he did.”
The motor has been updated. This has many of the M-170 elements, except for the passenger side cutout. I’m wondering if it has been filled?
“1953 Willys Military M38A1 Jeep with half cab &doors. 12 volt conversion 225 evenfire V6 with Weber carb. All new spring bushings & centerpins. Lots of work done. Needs tires & regastration, fell off DMV records same as starting over. Cash talks.”

Runs and drives.
“I have a 1962 Jeep Willy’s CJ6. Has a new rebuilt original 4 cylinder motor. (F134, I believe it was also called the Hurricane motor). Just picked it up from the mechanic today. Has a fairly recent tranny rebuild. It was rebuilt approx. 2 yrs ago. I would say less than 5K on the rebuild tranny. It would be a good daily driver or a great start to a complete restore. Body is in decent shape. The person I bought it from evidently used some putty to fill in some areas and it is starting to pull off. Pictures show the areas. I have the seat for the back but I was starting to fix some body areas and pulled it out along with the carpet. It also has a decent sound system, currently dismantled at the moment because I needed to build boxes for the speakers. It has a pto driven winch. Its a 3 speed with a splitter. 4X4 with locking hubs. Custom made front and rear bumper. As always have way more invested than what I am asking. In case you are wondering, because CJ6 aren’t very common, it is similar to the CJ5 except it has a 20″ longer wheel base. Any questions feel free to ask.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $12,500.
“Willy,s M38A1, 1953 Army Jeep, Original with minor restoration, rebuilt motor, PTO winch with snatch block and chains, cold weather top, gas heater, shovel, axe, tool kit, two WW11 gun racks, one with canvas cover, signal lights installed with no changes to the original wiring. Ser # 38880”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $6500
Looks solid. The ignition isn’t in the middle of the dash. That and the lack of bow holders could mean it is a CJ-3A body.
“1946 Flat fendered. Runs great! Only serious buyers please. No emails or texts…please call direct…thank you”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $25,000.
